I think if you have a gift you will be an alien, if not you will always be fighting in mid field.
you need to understand a lot about cars and physics and whats best to go fast (which I dont) and you also need to know about car setups (which I dont) and when you put it all together with some practice and good concentration you can be an alien i guess. (which im not) i dont think I will ever be one, just a well practiced noob.
im a mr. average always have been always will be. its not always bad as long as youre content. theres always someone of your level who you can race with and have fun, thats what counts, racing whoever is next to you, not just being the best and always winning.
when the wins do come, oh they are so much more rewarding and satisfying since, they always seem out of reach.
